    Sony XP709 Bluetooth speaker is the real deal. On sale right for $349. Almost $200 off the price. The highs and lows are great on this speaker. It is definitely worth the price! What are you waiting on? Get this speaker!

    Power Portable Sound

    This speaker is the perfect size to be portable enough that you don’t mind taking it with you, but large enough that you can fill a room full of music in a flash. Out of the box, you just plug in a power cable and hold down the bluetooth button and it’s as simple as that. The sound is great! You get punchy bass, vocals come through loud and clear, which is one of my biggest pet peeve with speakers that tout big bass but have muddled everything else. Controls are easy and intuitive. The buttons on the top have a tactile feedback, feels like quality, and looks to be durable. On the back behind the rubberized cover, you get two USB ports, microphone and guitar hookups, audio in aux port, power connection port, and 3 buttons to party connect, turn on or off lights, and a battery care button that keeps the battery in top shape. There’s a place to store the power cable so you can pick up and carry it out in one go without having to search for clutter. You get tons of options when using the Sony Music app. I’m won’t go through all of them but custom EQ for Bass, Middles, and Treble is a nice addition, although I would have liked an expanded EQ. There’s also plenty of presets which will be good enough for most. You can also change power options. You can adjust bluetooth to prioritize quality or connection. And you can adjust how the lights on the speaker illuminate. One of the neater features, which deserve it’s own paragraph is an isolator and flanger options. Through the Fiesta app you can use your finger on your smart phone to control the isolator and flanger to emphasize parts of the song. I’m sure someone with with DJ experience would be able to do it justice, but I had a lot of fun with it with different songs. If you have multiple speakers you can also use party mode to connect, according to the website, up to 100 compatible speakers. With how portable these speakers are, I can see how easily and how quickly someone can set up surround audio very quickly and get amazing sound in a pinch. If you want a poolside speaker it’s also IPX4 rated so you won’t have to worry too much about splashes or a surprise rain shower. I love this speaker. I continuously move it from my house to my garage when I don’t feel like wearing headphones. It was also super easy to toss in my trunk and take to a cook out where having ambient music enhanced the mood. With 20 hours of charge, even if there’s no where to plug it in, you can be sure the party will continue on.

    Good quality speaker. Great indoors. I feel the bass in the floors when it’s playing. It’s fine outside but I expected it to be louder for tailgating. Does exactly what it is supposed to do, I had just hoped for more. Great product

    Great speaker for my outdoor movie nights. Very crisp sound, deep base, and loud volume. I run it plugged in for movies. I usually run it off the battery for backyard music. Exactly what I was hoping for.
